[Samba] Re: Domain SID does not match built in domain groups SIDs...

2006-09-05 Thread Jason Shaw
You are correct. I have users and groups with the correct domain SID, 
but there are a few groups that have the wrong domain SID and I want to 
correct them.


I ended up just stopping the Samba daemon and editing the bad groups' 
SIDs with and LDAP editor. It may have not been as safe as your way, but 
it seems to have worked.


Thank you for helping!

There is a utility that allows you to change the domain's SID.  Search

the

archives and the documentation for net setlocalsid


I do not want to change the domain or the server SID. Doing so would
invalid the users I have already entered. I just want to fix a couple of
groups that have bad SIDs.


It sounds as if you are saying that the users have the same SID as the
domain.  However some groups have incorrect SID's.

If you are keeping the POSIX and Windows user information in LDAP, you can
do the following:

Make a backup of the folder containing the ldap data.

Use ldapsearch to export the contents of the ldap directory to a file.  This
provides a second backup

Use ldapsearch  to dump the group information to a file.

Modify the SID information in the second (group) file and use ldapmodify to
bring the correct information back into the ldap directory.

This is based on the assumption that the domain's SID is correct and the
users' SID's are correct. Only the groups' SID's are incorrect.

Looking through the IDEALX scripts, it appears that I can just edit 
these SIDs with an LDAP editor; they appear to only modify the LDAP, no 
other Samba files (secrets.tdb, etc). But I'm not certain and do not 
want to proceed until I know I won't screw myself over by doing so.


Does anyone see anything wrong with this? Should I just delete these 
groups and recreate them? Would that be a more smart way?



Thank you,

Jason
